C’mon, everyone panic! Al needs to make another hundred million.
(CNSNews.com) – Former Vice President and environmental activist Al Gore said “our very way of life” is at stake because of “our recklessness” on climate change.
Gore blogged on Friday that concentrations of carbon dioxide hit 400 parts per million in the Earth’s atmosphere, a warning that if Americans don’t change there will be dire consequences.
“Now more than ever before, we are reaping the consequences of our recklessness,” Gore wrote. “From Superstorm Sandy, which crippled New York City and large areas of New Jersey, to a drought, which parched more than half of our nation; from a flood that inundated large swaths of Australia, to rising seas affecting millions around the world — the reality of the climate crisis is upon us.”
He said things are bad and could get worse:
“Our food systems, our cities, our people and our very way of life developed within a stable range of climatic conditions on Earth,” he said. “Without immediate and decisive action, these favorable conditions on Earth could become a memory if we continue to make the climate crisis worse day after day after day.”
